陳悟空: 大家好。每次別人問(wèn)我叫什么名字，我很難回答，因?yàn)檫@壓根不存在。不要誤會(huì)我的意思，其實(shí)我有名字，但不是英文名。所以為了更方便在中國(guó)生活，我給自己取了個(gè)中文名“悟空”。沒(méi)錯(cuò)，就是《西游記》的主人公孫悟空，他姓孫，而我姓陳。孫悟空“西游”，而我“東游”。

Life itself drives us where we deserve to be. All you need is to have a plan, commit to your goals, prepare, be consistent and have faith. My story is one example… I went to Germany to pursue my dream of becoming a doctor but it didn’t work out because of my family financial conditions back then. I had to serve myself and I couldn’t give my 100% towards my goal so I planned to continue my studies elsewhere.生命本身會(huì)指引我們到達(dá)應(yīng)該到達(dá)的地方。你需要有所計(jì)劃，朝著你的目標(biāo)前進(jìn)，做好萬(wàn)全準(zhǔn)備，堅(jiān)持不懈，充滿(mǎn)信心。我的經(jīng)歷就是一個(gè)很好的例子...我漂洋過(guò)海來(lái)到德國(guó)，希望實(shí)現(xiàn)我的醫(yī)生夢(mèng)，但由于當(dāng)時(shí)我的家庭經(jīng)濟(jì)條件，這個(gè)夢(mèng)想落空了。我必須要為自己的決定負(fù)責(zé)，我當(dāng)時(shí)沒(méi)有為我的目標(biāo)付出100%的努力。我決定到另一個(gè)地方繼續(xù)學(xué)習(xí)。

I first came to China in 2015, but the journey to China started a long time ago. More than 15 years ago, when I was a little girl, I had a conversation with my dad about my future goals. He suggested that I should study the Chinese language, he said the 21st century is the “Century of China”, and the Chinese language is the “Language of the Future”. I didn’t understand him at that time, because China seemed to be very far away, and I hardly knew anything about this country. In those times, we didn’t have internet, and the only link to the world – the TV – never talked about China.我第一次來(lái)中國(guó)是在 2015 年，但我的中國(guó)故事很早就開(kāi)始了。15 年前，當(dāng)時(shí)還是小女孩的我和父親一起討論我的未來(lái)。他建議我學(xué)習(xí)中文，他說(shuō)21世紀(jì)是“中國(guó)的世紀(jì)”，而中文是“未來(lái)的語(yǔ)言”。當(dāng)時(shí)我還不理解這句話的含義，因?yàn)橹袊?guó)似乎很遙遠(yuǎn)，我對(duì)這個(gè)國(guó)家?guī)缀跻粺o(wú)所知。那個(gè)年代沒(méi)有互聯(lián)網(wǎng)，唯一能了解世界的渠道——電視也從未介紹過(guò)中國(guó)。

Once upon a time, there was an 18-year-old girl deciding on her undergrad major. She decided she wanted to graduate in Translation and Interpreting Studies, but what languages would she choose? That girl barely out of teenagehood was me, and I decided to come to Asia and so my second major language during university was Chinese. From acquaintances to university clerks, everyone warned me —Chinese is so very difficult, are you sure?曾經(jīng)有一個(gè) 18 歲的女孩正在選擇本科讀什么專(zhuān)業(yè)。她終于決定要讀口筆譯專(zhuān)業(yè)，她會(huì)選擇什么語(yǔ)言呢？那個(gè)剛剛走出青春期的女孩就是我，我決定來(lái)到亞洲，所以我在大學(xué)期間選擇中文作為我的第二外語(yǔ)。從朋友到大學(xué)職工，每個(gè)人都警告過(guò)我——中文非常難，你確定要學(xué)嗎？

Two and a half years before, I wasn’t expecting to come to China and live all the experiences that I am living now. Exactly two years ago, I was in a 30-hour flight coming to China, not even knowing what challenges I was going to face. It all started when graduating from high school. I was looking for a good university to study when I found about the Chinese government scholarships. I applied and as soon as I got accepted, I had to travel to China to study a one-year Chinese language course in Xiamen’s Huaqiao University.?兩年半之前，我并沒(méi)有想到會(huì)來(lái)中國(guó)，過(guò)上現(xiàn)在的生活。兩年前，我坐了 30 個(gè)小時(shí)的飛機(jī)來(lái)到中國(guó)，我甚至不知道將會(huì)面臨什么樣的挑戰(zhàn)。我的中國(guó)故事從高中畢業(yè)時(shí)開(kāi)始，當(dāng)時(shí)我得知中國(guó)政府提供留學(xué)獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金，所以我想找一所好的中國(guó)大學(xué)學(xué)習(xí)。于是我申請(qǐng)華僑大學(xué)的留學(xué)生，一被錄取，我就前往中國(guó)，學(xué)習(xí)一年的中文課程。

My China story starts in 2007 in Hungary, where I was teaching international political economy at the Corvinus University of Budapest, and researching public economic policy issues in a think-tank. I was in a relationship for 4 years, I owned a small flat and a car, and lived in a nice environment with my beloved in the green Buda side of the capital city. So I had an ongoing academic career, close to finishing my PhD at the International Relations program, and had what we can call a normal life.我的中國(guó)故事還要從 2007 年的匈牙利講起，當(dāng)時(shí)我在布達(dá)佩斯的科維努斯大學(xué)教授國(guó)際政治經(jīng)濟(jì)學(xué)，還在一個(gè)智庫(kù)研究公共經(jīng)濟(jì)政策問(wèn)題。當(dāng)時(shí)我正在談一段維持四年的感情，擁有一套小公寓和一輛小車(chē)，和我的女友住在樹(shù)木繁茂的布達(dá)城區(qū)。我正在進(jìn)行學(xué)術(shù)研究，即將取得國(guó)際關(guān)系博士學(xué)位，過(guò)著正常的生活。

My story in China started when I got a job offer for a company in Guangzhou. I never thought of China as a place where I would like to live, I only considered it as a place to travel sometime in my life. Surprisingly, China has turned out to be the country that has brought me the most exciting adventures and experiences in my life so far.我收到廣州一家公司offer的時(shí)候，我的中國(guó)之旅也隨之開(kāi)始。我從未想過(guò)，今后我會(huì)住在中國(guó)，我只把它看作是生命中的旅居之地。但令我驚喜的是，中國(guó)帶給我的是最激動(dòng)人心的冒險(xiǎn)經(jīng)歷。
